This week’s lucky winner of the Made in Bury Weekly £2000 Draw is Jodie Finta from Yates & Suddell with ticket number 21756 – Congratulations!

Yates & Suddell based on Bridge Street in Ramsbottom are official supporters of the Made in Bury Weekly £2000 draw and it is fantastic to have their support.

Having an enviable reputation Yates & Suddell are an independent opticians built over 60 years. They pride themselves on providing exceptional eye care to the local community. Their highly skilled team of opticians, contact lens practitioners, optical assistants and hearing aid audiologists ensure patients have the best possible service at great value for money.

Jodie is an Optical Advisor at Yates & Suddell and has worked there for 15 years. She spends her days setting up clinics, dispensing glasses and fitting them as well as efficiently running the practice.

We went down to the opticians on Bridge Street in Ramsbottom in the hope that Jodie would be in working today and we would be able to surprise her with the news!

As we arrived outside of the practice, we were greeted with shrieks of joy from two lovely ladies, one of them being Jodie herself! Jodie and Christine were thrilled to find out they had won today! A patient who was in the waiting room clapped with joy for the pair. It turns out the ticket number is a syndicate ticket and they are going to be splitting the winnings between 5 of them. So as well as Jodie and Christine – Katrina, Dee and Sarah will also be receiving a nice sum of £400 each.

Christine plans on treating herself with her share of the money, and Jodie said she has a camping holiday booked so it will go towards that. I’m sure the other ladies will find something great to spend theirs on too!

It was a pleasure heading down to Yates & Suddell today and surprising Jodie & Christine. It could be you next! Why not team up with your colleagues and get a ticket in the Made in Bury Weekly £2000 Draw? Give yourselves something to get excited about every Wednesday!
